Macro Questions

1. How many macros can you list per character sheet? Is there a limit? It seems like I get so many then they start back at the front instead of the end of the list. 2. How can you keep them in a certain order? It seems like I set them up and they get re-ordered somehow. 3. Is there, or are they working, on a way to have parent macros with a drop -down list? That would keep the macro clutter down and set them up nice. I read through the idea section and really like the color coding idea. That with some drop-downs would be sweet.

Not sure if there is a limit. I've had half a screen covered with ability macros. I think they will continue to wrap. 2. How can you keep them in a certain order? It seems like I set them up and they get re-ordered somehow. You can move one of your ability macros up/down to a new slot, close and reopen the attributes and abilities tab, then move it back. 3. Is there, or are they working, on a way to have parent macros with a drop -down list? That would keep the macro clutter down and set them up nice. Not sure. Colour coded macros is a good suggestion. I kind of added on the sub-menu of macros as a rider to that suggestion. please make a comment and/or vote to get it some visibility... I read through the idea section and really like the color coding idea. That with some drop-downs would be sweet.
Thanks man!

In the past, there was a bug where if you had a Macro from the Settings tab set to show as a Token Action , all bets were off as far as sort order. You'd get completely random seeming crazy ordering. Not sure if that's still the case, but you might check if you have Macros as Token Actions . (If you are unsure, and easy way to check is to drag in a new Token from the Image Library tab and select it. If you see a Token Action , it must be from a Macro .)
Thanks Aaron!
